Name
hyaluronate lyase;
hyaluronidase (ambiguous);
glucuronoglycosaminoglycan lyase (ambiguous);
spreading factor;
mucinase (ambiguous)
Class
Lyases;
Carbon-oxygen lyases;
Acting on polysaccharides
BRITE hierarchy
Sysname
hyaluronate lyase
Reaction(IUBMB)
Cleaves hyaluronate chains at a beta-D-GlcNAc-(1->4)-beta-D-GlcA bond, ultimately breaking the polysaccharide down to 3-(4-deoxy-beta-D-gluc-4-enuronosyl)-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine. [RN:
R02465 R06242 ]
Reaction(KEGG)
Comment
The enzyme catalyses the degradation of hyaluronan by a beta-elimination reaction. Also acts on chondroitin. The product is more systematically known as 3-(4-deoxy-alpha-L-threo-hex-4-enopyranosyluronic acid)-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-D-glucose
History
EC 4.2.2.1 created 1961 as EC 4.2.99.1, transferred 1972 to EC 4.2.2.1, modified 2001
